All Obama's fault.
His administration sat idly by and watched the development through maturity of this economy debilitating industry. But not to worry, the Trusmpster to the rescue.

It cannot be stopped. This is no different than the industrial revolution, lots of farmers were put out of business. We just have to live with it and we will.
Capitalism will correct itself.

Very funny bro. This is serious. The internet has a negative impact on employment in my poorly educated opinion.

This Liberal says, we will have to take some of that money going disproportionately to the 1% and, distribute it to that portion of the 99% unable to find consistent work, in the form of a guaranteed income.
Do that or otherwise be prepared to face the inevitable revolution.
Giving everyone access to a gun, under the 2nd Amendment, will not frighten away an an angry, unemployed man who can't get health care and live with the knowledge that his kids will grow up worse off than he is, while fat cats living in multiple fortresses, take more and more out of the economy and, at the same time, destroy the environment.

its creating as much higher paying jobs as the low paying jobs being lost. I can tell you for a fact there is a shortage of engineers in the tech sector in Canada. Move on or you will get left behind, its all part of evolution.
In reply to nitro
so what happen to the thousands of people now working in fulfillment centers?
It is just an adjustment in the distribution system.
In reply to ProWI
you are talking nonsense and targeting the wrong people. Do you know how hard many one percenters and 0.1 percenters work to accquire wealth? Most of them are self made through hard work so wheel and come again.
If you want to target, then, target the ones with power - the 0.01 percent.

So we should increase tax on those selling online and redistribute to the poor?
Isnt that going to make people just sit and live off welfare?
In reply to Darkness
So we should incentivise folks to retrain for jobs that are in demand!
I agree.
In reply to Darkness
Make everyone a engineer! Problem solve!

You are in a society and got wealthy based on the securities of the society, you owe it to society to pay back, if not, then society collapses

what kind of granularity tangent are you going off on? With that argument you will end up in an infinite loop. Lets talk practical ok?
And how do you know that one percenters do not give back to society in many ways? Do not jump to conclusions.

That is not the point, the point is that success in any thing whether financial or happiness or any field comes through sacrifice, dedication and commitment - hard work.
To become an engineer or a doctor or a good musician or what have you is hard work!
To many people look at others and bitch because of the success they me perceive those "others" have, without realizing the hard work it took.
What is killing society is the feeling of entitlement. The online thing happened because people worked hard to develop the technology, it makes life easier and will kill some jobs. Instead of people bellyaching they should get off their entitled ass and at least try to sweat a bit!
I like the idea of a guaranteed minimum income but that will not change a thing and will in fact increase the feeling of entitlement for most people!
